Aerospace Engineering: Aircraft Fundamentals and Advanced

What you'll learn
Understand the basics of Aerospace Engineering
Identify the components of an Aircraft and their purposes
Understand how Airplanes Fly and their key parameters
Identify the type of Aircraft suited for each mission
Define and propose your own Aircraft
Understand the basics of stability and Aircraft Design
Requirements
Basic physics (High School Level). Not mandatory!
Interest in Aeronautical and Aerospace Engineering
Description
The Aerospace Engineering: Aircraft Fundamentals and Advanced Course is a multidisciplinary course where you will study the aerodynamics, mechanics and engineering of Airplanes and Aircraft. My intention is that you fully understand the main topics regarding Design and Engineering of Aircraft and Airplanes.
The structure of the Course is the following
Introduction
Classification of Airplanes
Aerodynamics
JET Engines
Flight Mechanics
Performance
We will discuss topics such as Stability, Mechanics and Rigid-Body Physics, Aircraft types and history, Flight Mechanics and Maneuvers, Control Surfaces, TurboFans and much more!
The objectives of the Course are for you to understand how Airplanes generate Lift, how the Lift is related to the Drag and how the Drag requires a constant Thrust provided by the engines. Engine types and comparison, which one is more efficient and why? Flight Mechanics and control surfaces and Performance of the Aircraft depending on the Range and Weights.
I encourage you to begin this journey to Aerospace Engineering, you won't regret it! If you have any doubts during the course feel free to...
